A jumble of emissaries — a friend, a family member, a dove and a hawk — on the Iran crisis reflects President Trump’s improvisational approach.

The 2,000 paratroopers heading to the region may give President Trump more leverage in negotiations, but they also leave him with the option of doubling down on military force.

Five missiles struck the Baghdad International Airport and injured four people. Israeli and Iranian attacks continued as global economic concerns about the war mounted.

As the conflict with Iran expands and intensifies, President Trump’s options — to fight on, or to move toward declaring victory and pulling back — both carry deeply problematic consequences.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright said the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passageway for oil shipments, remained unsafe for tankers. Iran has been firing projectiles and laying mines.

Ukraine wants to leverage its defense expertise into security partnerships and to reap potentially vast profits for its arms industry.

Accounts from Israeli officials and footage verified by The New York Times show that Iran has targeted Israel with the weapons. Experts say this has exposed civilians to indiscriminate attacks.
